Postcard for a man step by step

We have collected necessary materials and start working on creating our postcard


It is better to make a postcard from thick cardboard. Let's take either a blank for a postcard or measure the cardboard ourselves and cut it, remembering that it should be rectangular in shape.


Using a ruler, measure the middle of the front side of the card, and mark a strip on the back side with a pencil. The depth of the strip is 3 centimeters, but remember that the sizes are individual and it all depends on the size of your postcard.


Now, using scissors, we make a cut, strictly along the line that you drew with a pencil. And turning the paper right side out, diagonally, we form the collar of our shirt.


What's a shirt without a tie? Let's take a pre-printed tie template and use it to create a tie. For this we need either thick colored paper or writing paper. Trace with a pencil and cut out with scissors.


Then we try on the tie with the shirt; if it is too big, we trim it a little. And then glue it with dry glue.


If desired, you can decorate the shirt collar with rhinestones or small buttons. We simply fix them with glue to the collar of the shirt.

We collected the necessary things in a pile at once and began to create.

Let's start creating. Take blue jacket paper and shorten it so that the height is 18 centimeters. We measure 7.5 and 8.5 centimeters from each edge. And we make bends, one part will overlap the other, this is how it was intended. Then we bend the corners.

Then, we create this blank for the shirt. The top of the collar is off-center. We make exactly according to the dimensions indicated.

We make cuts on the collar in a horizontal direction and bend it.

It's time for decoration. Cut off the blue satin ribbon, slightly longer than halfway down the length of the shirt. We cut one edge into a triangle, and insert the other under the collar.

Glue a large bead onto the tie. The result is the correct shape.

This is what it looks like in full.

Cut out a pocket measuring 2 by 6 centimeters. We squeeze a piece of tape and glue it on the back side.

Glue the pocket with the handkerchief to the side of the jacket that is placed on top.

We put all the parts of the shirt together and draw a dotted line along the edges with a white pen. You can add any decor you want.

We write congratulations inside.
